The food was good, as usual, but pricey. The server was exceptionally attentive and friendly. The restaurant website shows valet parking @ $8.00 but the parking lot charged $12 (plus tax) so this should be "fixed" so that customers have accurate information. There is a 5% service charge for minimum wage adjustment. This was not evident until we received the bill ... not that it would have changed our mind about dining here but some sort of footnote on the menu would have been appreciated.
